It is also needed for tissue growth and repair, the strength of capillary walls, lactation, detoxification, and adrenal gland function. Vitamin C is vital for the formation of collagen, the body’s structural substance, and it supports the immune system, helping the body resist and overcome disease and fight bacteria and viruses. In addition, vitamin C promotes wound healing, is a powerful antioxidant, and helps in the absorption of iron.
